Police acknowledge the sentencing of six Mongrel Mob members for a range of violent offending in Southland in 2022.

The sentences handed down in the High Court at Christchurch yesterday range from three years and four months, to six years, in prison.

“The sentencing of all six offenders sends a clear message to organised crime groups that behaviour like this will not be tolerated in our community,” says Area Commander Southland, Inspector Mike Bowman.

“Those who choose to offend in this way, causing this type of harm, can expect to be held accountable.”
